Upon reflection, the BMW X6 ought not to have stirred such a commotion. It's comparable to getting worked up about a BMW 4 Series Coupe when a perfectly practical 3 Series Touring can be purchased for less. These are distinct vehicles for distinct customers, and BMW should be praised for identifying this unmet need. Regardless of whether it's your cup of tea or not, the X6 deserves some recognition. The upgraded third generation model doesn't veer too far from its predecessors' design, yet it performs better in all aspects: more powerful, more efficient, quicker, and less polluting. It's also constructed from higher quality materials, arguably looks better, and features attractive high-tech options. Embrace it for what it is. The X6 is here to stay.
